I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 127
◈ 127. [Side Story] Preparing for War (4)
Evangeline has broken four SSR equipment in the meantime.
First of all, the cavalry spear and shield that I received as a graduation gift from the academy.
I broke this one. The lucky strike that he swung to overwhelm the 777 jackpot.
After that, I bought a cavalry spear and shield set from the dungeon merchant NPC, No Name. [Spear Demon] and [Shield Giant].
This is me and the two of us taking down 50 golems and then it was smashed.
‘How come everything is related to me.’
Anyway, all four pieces of equipment were broken under unavoidable(?) circumstances.
I commissioned the blacksmith to dismantle these four broken pieces of equipment.
As a result, I was lucky to recover one SSR grade magic core. With this magic core, I put in an armor manufacturing request.
Evangeline’s armor was manufactured, of course, because it was the magic core that came from disassembling Evangeline’s equipment.
“That is what was created!”
After a long introduction, I quickly unwrapped the armor next to me.
“This armor! Golem Armor!”
“… .”
Evangeline looked up at the armor I had revealed with her small mouth open.
“What’s this.”
“Whoops. Are you that impressed, junior? Well, it’s the armor I decided and ordered after thinking and thinking for you. ruler! It’s okay to shed tears of gratitude for your consideration.”
“No, not that.”
Evangeline shouted, pointing at the armor.
“You’re ugly-!”
It’s hard to say that this kid is ugly. How sad would it be to hear the armor?
“Would you say you look strong?”
“No, there is a degree to being strong! What kind of top is this worn on? What is this?!”
Evangeline pounded the heavy armored glove with her hand. Right after that, he freaked out and removed his hand.
“It’s terribly different! What!”
“Whoops… It’s the result of the alchemists’ diligent study of golem armor fragments? Of course it’s strong.”
I laughed sinisterly and went to stand next to the armor that was covered with gloves.
The only thing that definitely happened was the ignorance of the armored plates… … Oh no, it’s a heavy appearance.
[Golem Armor (SSR) Lv.35]
– Classification: Armor
– Defense: 70-80
– Durability: 40/40
– Stamina +25
– Each additional armor piece increases the wearer’s physical and magic resistance by 5%. (50% total)
– Each additional piece of armor on the armor reduces the wearer’s movement and attack speed by 2%. (Total 20%)
It was the result of researching the ‘Golem Corps Armor Fragment’ obtained after defeating the Golem Corps in Stage 3.
It made it possible to manufacture armor with superior defensive power than ordinary metals.
‘Instead of gaining an advantage in physical resistance and magic resistance, golem gloves are filthy heavy, so there is a penalty for movement speed and ball speed.’
I usually end up mixing one or two parts into the armor to reduce this penalty.
But here’s the reverse.
‘What if I made armor covered with golem gloves?’
That’s this armor golem armor.
Instead of gaining tremendous physical and magic resistance, you get a huge penalty to movement speed and attack speed.
In particular, the decrease in movement speed is fatal in a fierce battlefield.
‘But here, Evangeline’s characteristic [Unstoppable] is activated!’
Evangeline’s characteristic [Unstoppable] is 100% resistance to movement-impairing status ailments.
Thanks to this, Evangeline can ignore the movement speed penalty attached to this armor on its own.
In other words, instead of only receiving a speed penalty, you are afraid of splashing the water cart.
In this way, the advantage is greater than the penalty.
‘It’s the armor that best fits Evangeline in the early and middle stages.’
They say she has skills that help her attack, but in the end, Evangeline is a pure tank.
In the middle of enemy lines, you must draw the attention of the enemy and take the attack with your body.
In the meantime, I was anxious to see him performing stunts with only one shield, but I think it will be a little relieved if I put on a piece of sturdy armor like this.
“… thick.”
In the end, Evangeline, who tried on the armor, muttered waddlingly.
Evangeline’s petite physique and incredibly large and thick armor didn’t suit her at all.
Should I say it’s like a part-timer at a festival wearing doll clothes that don’t fit and waddling around at the event… … ?
“What is this… … .”
Evangeline was crying, but I liked it and nodded.
‘To be a avant-garde tanker, you have to show off your appearance like this.’
Watching him take the monsters’ attack with his slender limbs that seemed like they would break if he knocked on them, it broke my heart. won’t that happen now?
“As you can see, these additional gloves on top of the basic armor are detachable.”
Tapping on the additional gloves that were attached to my body, I explained. Evangeline is staring at me with wide eyes.
“If a lot of additional armor is damaged during a battle, like this… You can disconnect it by pressing the connection here. Then, even if your defense decreases, your mobility will increase.”
Golem armor has additional armor parts that are purged, that is, separated.
This is the reason why I was able to make it right away without measuring it.
Because it is an armor in the form of attaching cheesy parts. It’s free size.
‘It’s a little too much to be a free size… … It looks big, but… … .’
You’re going to grow taller, Evangeline. Then you’ll fit better.
Evangeline, who had been listening to my lengthy explanation, murmured softly.
“I’m dead… .”
“huh? what.”
“A fantasy I’ve had about the first armor.”
“Yonsuk. Don’t be fancy with the armor. Practicality is paramount.”
It’s a bit overkill, though. Are you still strong?
“Hey, the trend of knights these days is to look cool with armor! Wear shiny armor! Wearing a cool helmet too! Even the cloak is fluttering!”
Evangeline gave a squeal and then bowed her head.
“Can’t you promise me one thing, senior?”
“what.”
“Next time I wear a different armor, please match it with something really pretty.”
“Mmm.”
I’ll talk about it later, but your final armor, [Snow White], is very beautiful.
It was to the point where a screenshot of you wearing it was used as a promotional image for this game.
“Yes, yes. Promise me. But right now I have to wallow with vampires. Take care and wear it.”
“really… I’ll make you extinct, vampire… … .”
Evangeline’s eyes boiled with a speculation that she had never seen before.
But wearing waddling armor, so it’s kind of funny… … no it’s cool
I turned my gaze away from the spirited Evangeline and looked at the head of the Blacksmith Guild.
“What kind of golem gloves will be issued to ordinary soldiers?”
“Currently, half of our blacksmith facilities are dedicated to golem armor production. It will be payable to everyone before the start of the defense battle.”
“good.”
It was decided to provide one piece of golem gloves to ordinary soldiers.
So that each person can attach it to the desired part of the armor or attach it to the shield.
‘Even if it doesn’t seem like a big deal, I have to steadily build up these upgrades one by one.’
If heroic characters are hammers, common soldiers are anvils.
You need an anvil to hammer down.
And both have to be strong to turn the monsters in between them into blood clots.
As much as taking care of the heroes’ equipment, we should steadily strengthen the equipment of ordinary soldiers.
Although it seems like he’s campaigning too hard with only one armor part.
After giving these and other instructions to the Blacksmith Guildmaster, I turned to the party members.
“Tonight there will be a meeting about tactics for this defensive battle.”
Evangeline waddled around in her new armor and Lucas openly laughed at her (hey man). And Damian (Hey man 2), who was laughing with his mouth covered, looked at me.
“Each of you, take a break and come to the manor house by 6pm.”
I smiled.
“Let’s talk while eating together.”
This defense battle will be a desperate and tough fight.
I was thinking of explaining the strategy while feeding them delicious food.
***
This meeting was also a place to announce the entire defense strategy, so I toured the city and summoned other party members.
The Dion mercenaries were in the barracks.
It was a little after lunchtime, but I was sweating profusely at the training ground inside the barracks.
“one!”
“two!”
“three!”
“The defense is shallow! Once more!”
Two bandits were attacking three shield-bearing warriors.
The warriors defended by linking their shields together so that the defense could not be penetrated, and the thieves also attacked together in order to somehow break through the defense.
Even though there are only wooden swords and wooden shields, fierce battles are going on.
“Nice to see.”
When I muttered, Dion, who only then realized that I had visited, was startled.
“Your Highness, did you come, Anit?”
“omg?!”
“Are you here, lord!”
Five people lowered their shields and wooden swords and rushed in front of me, bowing their heads. I smiled.
“Sorry about this during training. It looked great.”
“Oh no! I’m ashamed to show you something I shouldn’t have seen.”
Dion was genuinely ashamed, but I was reevaluating them in my heart.
‘I didn’t even have a separate instruction, but I’m training in connection with the party myself.’
All of them are N-rank heroes. There are no specs or skills to brag about.
In the end, there aren’t many things they can offer, but one of them is strong teamwork.
‘If five people can attack and defend as one body, they can cover the limits of N-class and low levels and specifications.’
They know exactly which direction they need to go.
Dion looked back at the party members and smiled awkwardly.
“The other heroes under His Majesty are all very talented, but we are ordinary. Shouldn’t it cause trouble? I have to die and train.”
“… .”
I didn’t bother denying that.
to be competitive. And to survive on the battlefield. Because they have to continue their bone-breaking efforts.
“There is a meeting at the manor house at 6 o’clock this evening.”
He slapped the shoulders of the 5 members of the Dion Mercenary Corps once and said.
“Drain your sweat and wash up. I worked out hard, so I should eat something delicious.”
***
The Shadow Troops are living in a separate building a short distance from the manor house.
I’m an elf, so I’m worried about how others see me. I just gave away the annex.
Shook! Push shot!
At the back of the outbuilding, there was an archery passage.
Targets were placed in a mess and there were scarecrows full of arrows.
When the three archers shot their arrows, the two wizards moved the target to help with the training.
Their training is very systematic.
“Old girl. Long-range shooting accuracy is still low. Raise 1 point today. Skull. Close range shooting speed is slow. Reaction speed training from the beginning again. Burnout. what are you… … How long are you going to bomb? If you can’t do that, you’ll die later.”
God Hand, who was giving feedback to the archers, looked back at me to see if he felt a presence.
“Your Highness is here.”
“Everyone is eager.”
“You are here, Your Highness!”
“You are here!”
The rest of the Shadow Troops nodded at me.
Only the old girl waved her hand slightly. hmm. it’s still
I stared at God Hand’s hands.
“Are your hands okay?”
“sure. It is in perfect condition.”
“Good thing. I will have to use my body a bit from tomorrow.”
I winked at Lucas who was following me.
Lucas climbed onto the wagon pulled by the wagon behind him and opened the box on the wagon.
Sigh-
The box was half full of shiny gray metal.
It is a silver ingot.
“It is yours. God Hand.”
I brought all the leftovers I used to make equipment.
“… With this amount of silver, I think you could hire an army, not just the five of us.”
The embarrassed God Hand looked at me.
“Why do you do this to us?”
“You must have heard that the opponent for this defense is a vampire, right?”
I grinned.
“And the weakness of vampires is this silver. God Hand, you are a metal master who can handle metal at will.”
“… !”
“how is it. With this amount of silver, wouldn’t it be possible to go wild against vampires?”
Only then did God Hand, who realized my intentions, smile vaguely.
“What can I do, Your Highness?”
“Come to the restaurant in the main building of the mansion by 6:00. Let’s talk while eating… … ah.”
I winked at the little corps members.
“What menu would you like to have for dinner? If so, talk now.”
Then, the three archers immediately raised their hands with sparkling eyes. Like these gluttons.
***
I sent a separate person to Junior and called him, and he replied that he would come by 6 o’clock.
With this, all party members were summoned.
I decided to take a little break until everyone got together. I sat on the bed in my room and stared into the air.
“… .”
A system window floated in front of my eyes.
[Enemy Information – STAGE 5]
– Lv.? Vampire Lord: 1 Body
– Lv.? Vampire General: 2 bodies
– Lv.? Vampire < Elite >: 7
– Lv.25 Fallen Blood < Elite >: 20
– Lv.20 Frost Ghouls: 970
– Until start: 9 days
‘It’s coming.’
I felt dizzy when I saw the spread out enemy information window. Eventually, I turned off the system window.
‘They’re getting closer.’
This stage is difficult.
I prepared for a defensive battle with a lot of bravado, but I know the experience of the attack.
The fact that this stage will be terribly harsh.
However, knowing that there is no way to avoid it, I have no choice but to open my eyes and stare at the enemy wave.
‘Nothing changes. Every moment, not every defensive battle, is a one-hit game.’
At the stake of the fate of the world, throw one hand.
As always, that’s what I do.
